The Universal Studios Japan theme park, which launched with a license from NBCUniversal as a joint venture between Osaka and a group of private companies, opened the Wizarding World of Harry Potter attraction in 2014 and plans to debut Minion Park, the world’s largest Minion-themed area, featuring rides and shops.

In 2015, NBCUniversal paid $1.5 billion for a 51 percent stake in USJ Co. Comcast had gained the Universal film and U.S. theme park businesses after it agreed in 2013 to pay General Electric Co. $16.7 billion for company ownership of NBCUniversal, which also gave Comcast control of the NBC broadcast network, as well as cable channels MSNBC and Bravo.

The transaction reflects an enterprise value of 840 billion yen ($7.4 billion), including the assumption of debt. The deal is expected to close in April.
